Bosnia

Bosnia is the northern region of Bosnia and Herzegovina, encompassing 80% of the country; Sarajevo is its capital. Bosnia is often used as the name of the entire country, a habit that developed during Ottoman rule. Bosnia's population is divided into Muslim Bosniaks, Orthodox Serbs, and Catholic Croats, which has led to ethnic tensions over the years, erupting into warfare from 1992 to 1996 during the Bosnian War.
